Our Mighty Fly-Swatter Pro!

Jonah!

He is our mighty Fly-Swatter Pro!

Spring has long since been officially here and those darn flies are back to annoy us. Jonah repeatedly point to wherever the flies are and driving us nuts with their pointing. We, adults, have learned to ignore them and I believe we, adults, are resigned to have them around as our guests hovering over our dishes. While the kids are not. Kept pointing here, there, over there....

I got the fly swatter and told Jonah you can try and swat them.

Hoo boy, you should have seen him trying. The first few swats was a miss. But when he got his first one! He shouted! Dragged me to see his first kill. 

I laughed and got the camera!

Jonah smiling with his first fly kill!

Look at him beaming wide and proud.

His first kill!

Sorry fly. May you rest in peace!

Pretty soon he was a pro! Swatted here and there!

Now there's no more flies around to annoy us.  

My hero! Jonah!

Amazing kids--Annabelle and Jonah

I really marvel about my two little kids. I can't call them wee any more. They are growing and constantly surprises me with their growing knowledge. I marvel at what they know already and that they do have common senses. Thank goodness they have a good head on their shoulders.

Annabelle

The other day, Annabelle was looking all over for me and asked her papa where I was. Her papa teased her that I had left. Annabelle was puzzled, "Mom left?" Her papa said yes, left the house. Annabelle promptly walked over to where I keep my purse and pointed to it. And told her papa that "Mom did not leave." Her papa was surprised and smiled, "then keep looking for Mom."

He told me about that. I was like wow and felt proud of her because she knows me well. I never leave the house without my purse.

Jonah

I was already in the shower when my senor joined me. (We have a big shower with 2 shower heads and a 3rd one for the dogs or kids.)

Jonah was looking all over for me and asked his papa where I was. His papa teased him that I had left. Jonah said "No, No." His papa said, "yes she is gone." I was right beside him smiling at him teasing Jonah. Jonah is smart and told his papa "No, Mom is in there with you." Papa looked surprised and said "No, Mom is gone." Jonah pointed to my glasses on the sink area. Papa was defeated. Jonah laughed and pulled the shower curtain and shouted, "MOM."

Seeing my senor teasing Jonah and again, I felt wow and amazed that Jonah know I'm never without my glasses except at bed and shower.

So my amazing kids--Annabelle and Jonah--knows me pretty good!

Annabelle

I got this picture from Gail at FSDB who thought we should have it. It was taken yesterday at school. They had an Easter activity for their wee students.

Annabelle

Isn't she a darling?

Turkish Festival

We all went together to a Turkish Festival last Sunday. It was their 3rd annual and we had fun there.

Paid a $1 each person to dress up and pretend we are a Turkish family.

So this is us.

Isaac said his family on his father side came from Turkey. And that our last name "Abenchuchan" are Turkish. Interesting tidbits!

It's April? Already?

Golly Gee!

I don't believe it!

I've been busy and enjoying my Mom's visit here at our home. We had gone up to West Virginia to visit my sister and her family for a few days and we brought Mom home with us.

Now my sister is coming down in a few days with her family to take our Mom back home to West Virginia.

Sigh! I will miss Mom.

Time never stops. It runs and runs and runs. One got to make the best out of their time and life.
